Do people actually sit there and stare at covers? I see mine for what, 30 seconds every now and then when I take a disc off of the shelf and put it back after I've watched it. For me the main appeal of physical media is that it has superior quality and doesn't rape my bandwidth.

Yes there are some of us "movie collectors" that really appreciate a great cover artwork.

I agree, cover art does make me love a product a little bit more but asked what the last good cover for a DVD or Blu-ray was. I'm stumped. There's some pretty steelbook designs I guess but generally all covers are pretty terrible.

There's a store here in Melbourne that's filled with imported USA Blu-rays. Every time I step into the place and browse, the temptation to own them is incredibly strong. They have such gorgeous slimline cases and the artwork, front and back, is usually far more appealing than the local or UK versions.

You should see some Australian covers. The rating logo is so large it can often obscure key parts of the artwork.

I hate c**ppy covers, especially those godawful photoshopped ones that have been big for the past decade. I miss the covers of old that were a work of art. Fully painted and all is the way to go for me.
